Thanks! I had lots of extra after cutting out the side pieces, so I figured I would make a sort of matching tank protector :eek:ccasion14:
Love it. I checked the web site looking for that design, alas you handmade it, great job. You should send the company the design, I'd pay a little extra for it. Maybe it'll inspire them to do it. ?

Doing a rebuild and sandblasted my rear wheel today. Gonna paint tomorrow. First thing I've blasted so I'm pretty excited.

Rode it for the first time since Nov 2011 (although I've been maintaining it and rode several times to the station to put air in the tires). I've also had dizzy spells that kept me from riding (hypertension) up until recently.

I also installed front LED turn signals -- leaving the rears stock, since I have racks and want the signals to be very noticeable from the rear.

I've been enjoying the car far too much, I think. I probably have another month of riding before I put it away for the winter.
 
I built a little spot for it to rest this winter...in the basement where its warm ;)

That's not his point, on a racetrack you have a collective of people all aware of the risk. On a public road you are placing other people at danger outside of their will, whether the road is empty or not.
This forum must have the most uptight politically correct bikers out there.
